The object-oriented programming has been widely used in scientific computing since the 90s, including finite elements computations. The major consequence of it is a better maintainability and an easier extendibility of computational codes. In this paper, we advocate that the association of the natural high abstraction level of mathematics with an advanced object-oriented paradigm leads to a natural and a better organization of finite element codes. The approach is illustrated on an operator split method to solve an elastoplasticity problem. The implementation is done in Java.
